Original Note:
All newborns born in the US, even those delivered at home, must undergo newborn screenings (including blood testing). This is legally mandatory in all 50 states. The only exception is for a family's religious beliefs. This does not imply babies are "government property." https://newbornscreening.hrsa.gov/newborn-screening-process
